I found the one… Do you recall what inspired you to embark upon your fragrance journey? For me, it was the ever eloquent Gardenia. Gardenia’s are both my mother and grandmothers favorite flower, and one I carried on my wedding day. I grew up surrounded by bountiful blooming gardenia blushes radiating against the heat of the sun- their scent wafting a haunting love ballad. Delicate yet powerful- their presence undeniable. I often marveled at their beauty. Little did I know that finding that fragility and allure evocative of the bloom would be such a monumental fete, yet I set out to find her… While I encountered a few notable contenders, none quite lulled me like the lure of those warmed blossoms vivid in my memories- until now…

D.S. Eau De Parfum by D.S. and Durga is a rare and transportive expedition to the palatial gardens of India- circa 2019. A study where tradition meets modern day. Composed of precious and rare materials, this gold-line release is nothing short of hypnotic. Gardenia and Frangipani take center stage radiating a soft, sweet, floral aura while Kashmiri saffron wafts its savory presence against the delicacy of the florals. Lush rose absolute, and yellow lotus sing from the heart, while a touch of agarwood deepens its song. Vetiver, Musc Ambrette, and creamy Sri Lankan sandalwood lend a perfectly balanced earthy base. In short- I am head over heels in love. This is the Gardenia I have been searching for. The billowing of childhood memories. The love of my mother. The beauty, tenderness, and fragility of my wedding bouquet warmed under the tropic sun. Romantic, Enchanting, Exotic – Exquisitely Intoxicating… D.S. – “The One”.
